I am a 24 year old brony from FL. I write stories featuring Fluttershy (BEST PONY!!!), and a few about my favorite ships, 90% being Flimjack. I also have an MLP audio series on my YouTube channel.

Twilight Sparkle has failed at getting the Crystal Heart in time, letting the former king, who enslaved the entire kingdom over a thousand years before, return to take over the Empire.

Now, with the Crystal Heart permanently gone, Twilight is now bound to King Sombra for all eternity...

Because of this, it even left the only pony who can save her, her loved ones, and the empire, powerless against him.

it seems like everyone forgets that sombra got his ass kicked by celestia and luna. and as time has gone on, it became clear that they were younger, and likely not as powerful, back then too.

why wouldn't they just end him themselves? outside of seemingly testing twilight and co to see if they could win without the elements, albeit ti seems celestia had great confidence, sombra would ahve likely just banished the empire once more. not to mention he would probably be frustrating enough an opponent that it would wreck havoc.

in other words if they lsot the heart, the night and day itself would have unleashed themselves upon sombra.

....... depending on your point of view, the crystal heart was simply something he was simply trying to keep away from his enemies. the comics show that the heart is fatally dangerous to him, even touching it injures him. it being returned would shattered him. it is also, thus, well outside of his power to destroy. his very black magic would dissolve at contact.

also confirms that sombra is much weaker than the regal sisters. he said it himself in the comic basically.

I saw quite a few grammatical errors here and there, but overall it seems like a good story. I suggest going back and rereading it just so you can catch those little mistakes. They improve the quality of the story by a lot.

Now that was interesting. I wished I could read more of a fight or how Sombra manipulated Twi's mind. Overall good story.

oh my.. U have definitely outdone urself THIS time Cora!

bravo! This should have sequel or something!

the comics show that the heart is fatally dangerous to him, even touching it injures him.

comics

Not everyone reads the comics, and they aren't even canon

5974113 ......... i started that part by saying depending on your point of view. depending if you take into account the comics or not.

even without that part, we have indications that the regal sisters were the last resort, and one that would have overhwlmed sombra.

5973891 true. But both had to fight Sombra to win. And comics being canon is questionable at best.
He also has Twilight at his side which would have Celestia hesitate during the fight. And Celestia is also a thousand years old. Her power might have vained with time, especially since she no longer is connected to the elements who served as a power boost.
And this is AU comic. So some rules are bound to change.

:applejackunsure: Eh. Looks great. But not really my cup of tea anyway.

It's also possible that they used the Elements of Harmony to banish him last time around. I'm not saying it has to be so, just that it's a possibility.

It's also possible that since mastering his shadow form, he's grown too powerful for them to handle. Especially with Twilight at his side.

5974639 they did not use the elements. its pretty much given visually that they did not use the elements of harmony on him. theri blast had no hint or rainbow to it.

and basically he had been sealed away for a thousand years, inactive. luna was allowed to linger a while longer though she was sealed away. however celestia was active for all those years, and fought likely dozens of enemies.
twilight would not tilt the playing field nearly enough. she is still a unicorn, thus limited only to the power of a unicorn. even if sombra is stronger than an individual sister, which may be unlikely, one can hold him off long enough ti disable twilight and rejoin the fray.

There's something special about a story when the bad guys win. Well done on plot, grammar could use some work.

That is one amazing cover art you got there.

5975588 just got bored the other day, typed in "princess Cadence fanart", saw that one and it literally gave me an idea for a fanfic

5976933 Twibra Obviously! I love watching the Good guys get turned to the dark side. *Cue Dramatic lighting* MWAHAHAHAHA!!!

All hail the Dark Queen!

5973891 You know, just because Sombra was defeated before doesn't mean that he is stupid enough to be shamed on by being fooled twice. He maybe used a spell which blocked off all communication between Crystal Empire and the rest of Equestria so that not even the Princesses can do anything about it. They have limits too, not like they are invincible (man, talking about Communism!), but again that's just a theory of mine, there are millions of ways to interpret Sombra's victory.



Cora Zone Unicorn you did a pretty darn good job on this piece, pretty much looked at the whole story in the way that MLP creators do not want to show to children. How ignorant and cute they are for not having to see too deeply on what happens if Twilight failed this test, the ending did give a fearing mood though, how zesty your diction and imagery on describing Twilight as the "Queen".

Just to tell you, I added this artwork (yes, including your cover art) to my favorites. The beautiful converse of this beautiful writing is very appealing and attractive!

It was a good first dark story.
No much of a deep plot, but it wasn't what it was going for, I get it.
I really expect you to improve and go for bigger stories.

Also I love Twibra (and yes it have a name).

We need some more small dark fics like this most dark fics are a long read.
This is the best dark fix ever but I like it because its short and snappy and with the dark ascept to it.
Thanks for the story.

Nice little dark tale. I would like to believe that while most of the good guys were executed, Rarity was smart and corruptable enough that she preferred to serve the dark couple in the castle and assist them in royal fashion guidelines. :duck:

5978083 Well said! But how old is Sombra, anyway? I know, as his daughter, I should know, but I've lost count. (please don't pester me what Twilight is like as a mother, because we lost her countless moons ago, and I don't want to talk about.) (you can if you want)

As i said back on youtube, very chilling. Very chilling indeed. Worth the like on the video and the favorite and follow here

I want this as a multichapter story now not just a oneshot

6112193 if you want, you can write a sequel to this story. Or maybe, a spin-off series, in a way...

well done

Nicely done. I see the potential for follow ups. What happens next? Will Cadence be executed? Is there anything that can sway Twilight's now black heart>

I liked that the only thing Sombra said when Twilight asked what he wanted was, "A Queen.". Nice, straight to the point and don't brag about your grandious, egotistical plans. Sombra is a force to be reckoned with who won't waste time with that - he'll just straight out get the job done.

Have a fav and

Hail King Sombra!

Excellent work, Cora Zone

The image this story is based on....


Wow. Beautiful.

becoming executed

being

And since Sombra wins in this you'd need an AU tag.

Inspired by THIS image!!!!

Which now leads to a 404. :unsuresweetie:

Before I read this, what is the Dark tag for ?
And how bad does it get ?

So he removed her heart making her like this or she's willingly helping him.
